Both sides fought with all they had. Too many died.
Many fought because they loved and wanted to protect their countries. Many were forced to fight.
All these pictures and stories shown on TV made me very sad, and I cried because of the insanity and horror of war.
Soldiers had to kill. They didn’t even know each other.
I was 11 years old when the war was over in Germany.
Al those terrible memories are forever burnt into my heart.
Germany had to lose because Hitler was evil and wrong.
I am still working on forgiving him.
I didn’t only cry and pray for all the brave American soldiers, I also thought of and remembered the German soldiers.
May they all rest in peace together. God bless America.
